whoot..
First lane filtering now no more useless mud guards to throw in the bin.What's next?
Motorcycle manufacturers are set to save millions, and riders are less likely to be fined for customising their bikes under changes to the Australian Design Rules.
Australia-specific requirements surrounding rear mud guards have been abolished. Until now, new motorcycles had to be retrofitted with large, unsightly mud guards that extended beyond the rear wheel.
Many riders removed them, and some have been fined as a result.
Australia-specific motorcycle design rules cost more than $14 million to implement each year.
A joint media statement issued by Assistant Minister for Infrastructure Jamie Briggs and Parliamentary Secretary Josh Frydenberg says the mudguard requirement was "outdated and has no bearing on vehicle safety".

In a bid to further increase cut-backs, indicators are to be replaced by arm flailing as of next month.

About time. I don't remember what a uncut guard looks like on a sports bike. Pretty ugly I would think. Can they still do you for no reflector on the no guard.
